I have added :-

http://bcconnections.tribalpages.com/tr ... =890755913
Rosegarden has :- a George Woodbridge marrying an Ann Rose but shows Ann as dying in 1859

If one looks at Census details in 1851 for Isaac and Ann Short there is a Visitor Moses Rose aged 24 Farmer born Halesowen Worcs.
Then look at siblings of Ann Rose and there is a Moses Rose born 1818 Halesowen

Some of ages do not tie up but might be worth looking at

Must be same Ann Rose as no death of an Ann Woodbridge in 1859 West Bromwich but a death of Ann Short in 1859 West Bromwich.

Matilda is not there but seems to have been off at boarding school so I think it fits.

Isaac appears to have gone on to marry an Emma...

I think the original possible connection is good but Rosegarden should be contacted as connects to her.
The dates she has put for Death of George Woodbridge and Ann tie up even if death is shown as Woodbridge by Rosegarden and is actually Ann Short

Have merged the two looks good to me

will email RG too

this looks like marriage

Is John the son of Ann Rose or not?

GEORGE WOODBRIDGE
Marriages:
Spouse: ANN ROSE
Marriage: 07 JAN 1833 All Saints, West Bromwich, Stafford, Extracted

I wondered that myself and if John Underhill Woodbridge is a relative rather than son of George and Ann

Hmmm think we need to sort out who he is
and disconnect if needs be.....is that 1841 correct?

Hi all

Just had a quick look at my notes,and yes Ann marries Isaac Short.

George died 20 Nov 1846 High St West Brom.
I have another son for Isaac and Ann,James SHORT b 1849 W Brom

I also have George Taylor Woodbridge b 29 Aug 1845 m Ann Bilham b 13 Nov 1846 in Norfolk m 21 Feb 1867.

Not sure who John Woodbridge connects to

I also have Matilda Woodridge m William Evans 21 Aug 1851 Aston B ham
and Harriet Woodridge m William Cotterell 19 April 1860.Aston B ham

These were on the notes i have from Steve Cullen.
